It felt weird when i landed down from the space station, with the other planet in my horizen.Some of the stuff is missing, but some is still there.
Animal AI, while not enhanced, is present. They hunt, they stay in groups, stay in harmony with other species, are scared of you or attack you etc.
I have seen large ships sending distress signals as other ships are attacking them etc, in a video. IT is something.
Haven't encountered something like this myself so far though.
Animal variety is fully present. Even my 7-8 hours of gameplay so far has shown me that. I have seen from small weirdos to large weirdos. Now just hoping to land on a planet with extremely large weirdos.
Day-Night cycle is present. Moons are static from what I could tell. Not sure about the planets moving relative to each other and other movements.
Turned day to night and flew back up, The planet which was behind my current one could still be seen in the horizen. XD while the space station was right on the opposite direction of the planet.
Weird stuff.
This game is going deep despite its issues though.
So far i'm interested in seeing a crashed freighter on a planet.
